The correct answer is option a, that is, sedimentary rock.

There are three main kinds of rock on Earth: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary.

The sedimentary rock envelopes about three-quarters of the land on the surface of the Earth. However, sedimentary rock forms only about 5 percent of the top 16 kilometers of the crust of the Earth. The other 95 percent comprises of metamorphic and igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rock is malleable of the three kinds of rock. Thus, it is the quickest to erode.

posledela

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E

Explanation:

Hershey and Chase's experiment was performed to test whether DNA serves as the genetic material or protein.

To perform experiment they grew bacteriophage into radiolabeled phosphorus and sulfur compounds. The phosphorus is an integral part of the structure of DNA whereas proteins contain sulfur in their structure.  

In the given condition if radiolabeled nitrogen is utilized then the experiment will fail as the structure of proteins also contains an amino group( NH₂) in their structure as well as DNA. The scientist will not be able to identify whether the DNA is the genetic material or protein.

Thus, option-E is the correct answer.

1. Why are two thick cotton sheets warmer than one single blanket
mash [69]
Since the air is a great thermal isolator, the windows prevent heat exchange better than one made out of a single thick sheet of glass. The air between the thin blankets is not moving around and will form an isolating layer that acts exactly like another blanket, thus improving the thermal isolation
